I guess I don't program in the real world then, because I don't have an
interactive debugger (unless you count the bundled adb) on my machine.
At my customer site, there *is* an interactive debugger, but in fact,
the application is so big that the debugger won't fit in memory with the
symbol table information.  So I've never used it.
